Day 2 starts at 1 p.m. on Friday, May 24.  You need NOT have participated in Day 1 to participate in upcoming workshops.  In fact, some people can NOT return, so others are needed to fill in their spots.

There are activities for everyone and Kathy B will be on hand to guide and coach you along the process.  So come and have some FUN as we get ready for VBS 2013.

Brothers Too!, May 25

An early Saturday morning breakfast and Bible study with Pastor Pete continues May 25, at 7:30 a.m. at the church building.

Never too late to join this study, the group will pick up the reading of Luke at Luke 2:25.

Meeting each second and fourth Saturday of the month, this time of fellowship starts with breakfast from 7:30 a.m. – 8 a.m. followed by a Bible study until 8:30 a.m. Open to all men, this new opportunity is especially designed for those still working or with other obligations during the week.

Sunday, May 26

Sunday, May 26
Churchlife...becoming a Kingdom Community
Building Up The Church
1 Corinthians 14:1-12

This Sunday, May 26, we begin a series of messages on life in the church. In this series, we will be exploring what it means to belong to this incredible institution the church, which can be for us the body of Christ in a very real way.

We understand that Christ is the foundation upon which we build the church, but what does it take to build the church? What kind of community is it that we are establishing? What difference does church membership make (or should it make) in our lives? Finally, what does it mean to belong to the body of Christ? These are questions we will be addressing together over the next four weeks as we consider our common life in the church.

We start this Sunday as we look at Paul's teachings in 1 Corinthians. In the 12th chapter Paul describes what spiritual gifts – those enabled by the Holy Spirit – are all about.

The Brothers! May 30

The Brothers! continue their study of Exodus on May 30 at 8 a.m, continuing in Chapter 29 with the Lord describing the ordination of the Priests

The book of Exodus explains how the chosen children of Israel are rescued from slavery in Egypt by God.  Led by their prophet Moses they journey through the wilderness to Mount Sinai. There God promises them the land of Canaan (the "Promised Land") in return for their faithfulness.
